Thank you for posting your log and configuration file.

Your configuration file tells OpenVPN to look for a file "ca1.crt" in a folder "keys" which should be a subfolder of

 /Users/admin/Library/Application Support/Tunnelblick/Configurations

But that file does not appear to exist.

vpntunnel.se should have supplied you with that folder and files, and instructions to put the "keys" folder (with its files) inside

 /Users/admin/Library/Application Support/Tunnelblick/Configurations

In any case, that is what you need to do.

Had these symptoms and fixed. Wanted to post here in case it helps others.  Through process of elimination, I found the culprit in my situation to be NetGear's Genie client.  Killing that from memory immediately solved my issue of getting disconnected immediately after getting connected via VPN.

Thanks, this may help other folks.

It is, however, only one of many possible reasons for this problem.
